Abstract
The morphologies of the cerebral ganglia (brains) of three infraorders of the decapod crustaceans (Astacura-crayfish; Brachyura-crabs; Palinura-spiny lobsters) are described. A common nomenclature is proposed for homologous nerve roots, brain regions, tracts, commissures, neuropils, and cell body clusters.Keywords
